What’s Her Secret: Storyteller & Mental Health Advocate Meghan Yuri Young

After her family introduced her to the world of fantasy and sci-fi novels as a young girl, Meghan Yuri Young got hooked on literature and knew she wanted to be a writer. She went on to pursue a double major in English and Psychology at the University of Toronto, and after interning at a variety of magazines, she spent her 20s travelling and freelancing. A few years ago, Yuri Young quit her steady freelance gig and decided to dive into blogging and social media.

“Now, the 34-year-old Torontonian is a full-time writer, content creator, and consultant by day, and the leader of mental health platform The Sad Collective by night.”
